Family Room

Duanesburg Family Room re-opens for 2007-08 school year
Program available to Schenectady County residents
 

Children playing together in the family room.

Schenectady County residents are invited to attend the Duanesburg Family Room on Thursdays from 8:30 to 11 a.m. (Please note: Beginning in April 2008, the family room will be open from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.) at the Duanesburg Elementary School. Afternoon and evening events may be scheduled on occasion throughout the school year. Monthly schedules will be posted online.

The child-friendly room opened in November 2006 to provide preschool parents, caregivers and young children with a place to meet informally, play and participate in activities and workshops that strengthen parenting skills.

“We are so happy to be able to offer this program,” said Interim Superintendent Lew DeFilippo. “This is a tremendous benefit to young parents living in Duanesburg and surrounding areas in Schenectady County.”

The program is free and open to all Schenectady County residents. No appointments are necessary—simply drop by the elementary school, sign-in at the main office and ask school personnel to direct you to the Family Room. Visitors are invited to stay for all of part of the session.
 
The Family Room is a partnership with Cornell Cooperative Extension, Schenectady County and the Duanesburg Central School District. Funding is provided by the Schenectady County Youth Bureau.
